This article explains how to connect Microsoft Copilot Studio to the 6sense MCP server and authorize access.
Important
6sense MCP can be connected only through Microsoft Copilot Studio. The standard Microsoft Copilot product is not supported for this integration.
Before you begin
Before you set up MCP:
You must have access to a 6sense account.
Your organization must have access to the Revenue Marketing Platform.
Each user must authorize access individually.
Admin rights in your AI agent platform, if your organization requires an administrator to register connectors.
Authorization
Authorization is required when you connect to the 6sense MCP server.
How authorization works
If you are not signed in, you are prompted to log in to 6sense
If you are already signed in, you are shown a permissions screen
You must select Allow access to complete the connection
Important
Authorization is required per user
Each user must authorize access individually
Authorization is required even if advanced settings are used
Step-by-step procedure
To connect the 6sense MCP server in Copilot Studio, add the MCP server to your agent using the MCP onboarding wizard.
Add the MCP server to your agent
Open your agent in Copilot Studio
Go to the Tools page
Select Add a tool
Select New tool
Select Model Context Protocol
The MCP onboarding wizard opens.
Configure the MCP server
Enter the required details:
Server name. For example, 6sense MCP
Server description.
Server URL. Your 6sense MCP endpoint https://api.6sense.com/mcp.
Select the authentication type as OAuth 2.0
If you are not signed in, you are prompted to log in to 6sense
If you are already signed in, you are shown a permissions screen
You must select Allow access to complete the connection
Create the connection
Select Create
Create a new connection or use an existing connection
Select Add to agent to complete setup
Use the MCP server
After adding the server:
MCP tools provided by the server are available to your agent
The agent can call these tools when answering user queries
For more details, see Microsoft Copilot documentation.
Troubleshooting
Reconnect the MCP server
If your MCP connection is lost or marked as stale, you must reconnect the server before using it.
Symptoms
You may see one of the following:
The connection status shows Stale
The MCP server is listed under Manage connections with an error
Queries do not return results
Reconnect the MCP server
Open Manage connections
Locate the 6sense MCP connection
Select Reconnect
Complete authentication
After selecting Reconnect:
You are redirected to the 6sense sign-in page
Enter your 6sense credentials
Select Continue
If you are already signed in, you may see a permissions screen instead.
Select Allow access to authorize the connection
Finalize the connection
Return to the connection dialog
Select the 6sense MCP connection
Select Submit
Verify the connection
After connecting the 6sense MCP server, ask a question that requires 6sense data. For example, “Using 6sense, what is the current buying stage and top intent keywords for salesforce.com?”
If the connection works, your AI assistant:
The AI assistant invokes a 6sense tool.
The response includes 6sense account data.
Information such as buying stage, intent topics, or account details is returned.
If the connection doesn’t work, your AI assistant:
Provides only general knowledge responses
Indicates that no tool is available
Cannot retrieve 6sense data
To troubleshoot the issue, verify that:
The connector has been added.
The connection has been authorized.
The connector is enabled for the conversation or agent.
Unauthorized error (401) when opening the MCP URL in a browser
Symptoms
When you open the 6sense MCP server URL directly in a browser, you see an error similar to: Your API token is invalid or auth token is invalid or missing authorization header.
You may also see a 401 Unauthorized error.
Cause
This behavior is expected.
The 6sense MCP server is not intended to be accessed directly through a web browser. MCP connections are initiated and authenticated through a supported AI assistant, such as Claude, ChatGPT, or Microsoft Copilot Studio.
When you navigate to the MCP endpoint directly, the request does not contain the required authentication information, and the MCP server returns a 401 Unauthorized response.
Resolution
Do not open the MCP server URL directly in a browser.
Instead:
Add the 6sense MCP server in your AI assistant.
Complete the authentication and authorization process.
Use the AI assistant to access 6sense data through MCP.
